Pro racing drivers compete on circuits all over the world, and World Rallycross driver Andreas Bakkerud definitely makes the best of it with his too-delightful “Snakkerud” vlogs. He’s so dedicated to snacking, he makes a point to try local treats whenever possible, and the food reviews are a joy.

Former World Rally Championship driver Gigi Galli will be returning to FIA World Rallycross this year with his own team, competing in a car usually referred to as “my rental” or “my parents bought me this:” a Kia Rio. Holy crap, it actually manages to look really awesome in World Rallycross trim.

Timmy Hansen overtook Mattias Ekström on the final corner to claim the checkered flag at today’s WorldRX of Sweden championship, and the finish was almost too much for the FIA announcing team to handle. “You have to excuse my screaming! He’s done it! Epic!”

The FIA World Rallycross series’ trip to the Estering this weekend was predictably nutty, with plenty of gentle bumps, taps and whacks for the whole family. Here’s some of the most ridiculous love taps from over the weekend.

Rallycross is an utterly insane mixed-surface form of racing with plenty of bumps, yumps and nonstop action. One of the biggest series out there is the FIA World Rallycross Championship. Who's in it, how does it work, and why should you care? Let Hoccy from The Rally Takeoverexplain.

World Rallycross is a magical wonderland of hopping happy rally cars. This weekend, Istanbul hosts the next-to-last round of the FIA World Rallycross Championship. Hoccy on The Rally Takeover is here with a preview for this weekend's race.
